"You guys did that?"
"I love you...so ..much,"
You chuckled as you were leaning against the archway, watching the TV and seeing the news. There was Tiamut, a marbled statue of the Deviant that almost killed off the entire planet. You remembered being there on the beach when you stopped the Emergence from happening, remembering it all in your mind as you were watching the TV absentmindedly. It felt like a dream that you went though that was beyond real and beyond intense to experience. You could still feel the sea salt air against your skin, the heat of the volcano that erupted because of Tiamut waking up, and the ground shaking under your feet as you were fighting off who used to be our ally.
You were still reeling about Ikaris.
Ever since you all reunited and got back together to stop the Emergence, you had a sinking feeling that it wasn't the same as it was before. Ikaris was determined in any way, shape, or form to have the Emergence happen, which lead to demise of both Gilgamesh and Ajak in the process. It was as if he stabbed you himself when you heard what he did to Ajak, your view of him forever changed. But in the end, it was Ikaris who was defeated.
These past few days were a whirlwind to you, seeing your family again and trying to save the world at the same time. Your head was spinning with all of this unfolding in front of you, from the moment they recruited you in your small log cabin in the woods out in the outskirts of Canada, you were in over your head. But then again, it was nice to see your family again and to see their faces, it's been centuries since you've all been together. Old memories and moments were sprouting back into your mind as you went along with them, especially with one Eternal in particular.
Druig, the mind controller.
You two were close in the past, it even started in the beginning when you all woke up on the Domo. He found you intriguing, at least that's what he told you when you introduced yourself to him. He loved the kindness you had with the humans and the gentleness in your movements. You were entranced with his thirst to help the humans, though it was overshadowed with his aloofness and almost mysterious aura that he showed constantly. He was the loner of the family, but not with you.
You were the exception for him.
Your friendship was genuine and good, seeking each other out in dire times and would vent to each other when things did get heavy. You listened to every rant from Druig, hearing the pain in his voice when he couldn't help the humans in wars. You didn't mind having him vent to you, knowing that it was going to be better for him in the end to let it all out. In fact, you would only find out later that he would only talk and confess his thoughts to you, not to anyone else. It shocked you at first, but he then confessed why later on one night when you two were walking together.
"I find you safe to talk to," Druid explained as you walked side by side late one night on a patrol, "I don't feel any judgment from you at all when we would talk together. I feel...myself with you,"
"I would only want you to be yourself, Druig," You confessed to him sheepishly, seeing him grin at you before playfully shoving your shoulder with his own. Since then, you developed feelings for the mind controller. It was small and simple, the smaller glances you would give him from across the Domo, or the small flutter of butterflies in your stomach when he would smile at you or laugh at a joke. Even a brush of your arms together was enough to have you loose your breath. It was odd, you falling for the brooding and sarcastic one in the group.
